Offshore Wind Energy in Europe ¬Ė Projects and Experiences From Various Countries

Tuesday, November 13, 2012, 9:30-11:00 am Paris and Frankfurt

France is beginning to develop an offshore wind sector, with the first tenders put in place earlier this year.

France follows other countries like the UK and Germany, who have already established their offshore wind markets. The UK’s projects include Walney (367 MW), Thanet (300 MW), and Lynn and Inner Dowsing (194 MW), which have not been without issue. Germany has an offshore wind park in operation called Alpha Ventus, but the numerous grid problems have prevented progress on other wind shore projects.

It would behoove the future project management teams of France to learn from the British and German offshore wind sector. This AGRION conference will examine the difficulties and complexities that have arisen in those areas and possible strategies to avoid the same challenges.
